I have a page I've done on the 4720z. It involves using 3rd party packages. The original page, which covers several distributions, is at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/acer4720z.html I would just use the laptop template, with a link to my page on it for the webcam, as in works with 3rd party software, see <link to my page> and wireless, works with 3rd party software, see
